The Seafood Processors Pandemic Response and Safety (SPRS) Block Grant Program provides grants to eligible state agencies and territories to support seafood processors, including at-sea processing vessels, to respond to coronavirus, including for measures to protect workers against COVID-19.

State agencies within select coastal States and American Samoa are eligible to apply directly to the U.S. Department of Agriculture for grant funds.
